THE SCRIPT {Greek statues and vases fade in} Narrator: Long ago, in the faraway land of ancient Greece, there was a golden age of powerful gods and extraordinary heroes. And the greatest and strongest of all these heroes was the mighty Hercules. [a greek vase is shown with a picture of Hercules fighting some monster. Vase zooms in slowly] But what is the measure of a true hero? Ah, that is what our story is- Muse 1: Will you listen to him? He's makin' the story sound like some greek tragedy. Muse 5: Lighten up, dude. Muse 3: We'll take it from here, darling. Narrator: You go, girls Muse 3: We are the Muses. Goddeses of the arts and proclaimers of the heroes. Muse 5: Heroes like Hercules Muse 1: Honey, you mean "hunk-ules". Ooh, I'd like to make some sweet music with him- [Muses start humming] Muse 3: Our story actually begins long before Hercules, many eons ago.. [scene changes colors and the Muses start walking and singing] Muses: (singing) Back when the world was new The planet Earth was down on its luck And everywhere gigantic brutes called Titans ran amok [schematic pictures of whatever gets mentioned in the song start moving] It was a nasty place There was a mess wherever you stepped Where chaos reigned and the earthquakes and volcanos never slept (Whoo! Say it, girlfriend!) And then along came Zeus He hurled his thunderbolt -- He zapped Locked those suckers in a vault -- They're trapped And on his own, stopped chaos on its tracks And that's the gospel truth The guy was too "type A" to just relax And that's the world's first dish (yeah, baby!) Zeus tamed the globe while still in his youth Tough, honey, it may seem impossible That's the gospel truth On Mount Olympus life was neat And smooth as sweet vermouth Although honey, it may seem impossible That's the gospel truth HTTP://COPIONI.CORRIERESPETTACOLO.IT {schematic picture of Olympus zooms in and turns into a real one. While the Muses still repeat their 'ah's and 'yeah's, camera moves up the mountain slope,while it does, the movie title, HERCULES, is shown. Then camera goes inside, passes various chattering gods and finds baby Hercules} Hera: Hercules! Behave yourself [Zeus come in to play with baby too] Zeus: Oh, look at this, look how cute he is.. [Zeus babbles at baby Hercules and he catches Zeus by index finger and lifts above his cradle] Hah! Oh, he's strong! Like his Dad, hmm? Hermes (moving through a crowd of gods): Whoa! Excuse me! Hot stuff coming through! Excuse me one side, Ares. [Hermes hand Hera a bundle of glowing flowers] Hera: Why, Hermes, they're lovely Hermes: Yeah, you know, I had Orpheus do the arrangement. Isn't that too nutty? (flying closer to Zeus now) Fabulous party, you know, I haven't seen this much love in a room since Narcissus discovered himself [Narcissus is shown, staring into his mirror and making kissing sounds. Also Baby Hercules gets one of Zeus' lightnings and plays with it] Hera: Dear, keep those away from the baby. Zeus: Oh, he won't hurt himself. Let the kid have a little fun [Baby Hercules tryes to eat the lightning, gets zapped, and throws it away in frustration. Three gods jump away from its path, untill Ares hits it with his sword so it hits a pillar, which immidiately reappears] Zeus: Oh, on behalf of my son, I want to thank you all for your wonderful gifts Hera: What about our gift, dear? Zeus: Well, let's see here.. we'll take, hmm, yes, a little cirrus, and, hmm, a touch of nimbostratus, and a dash of cumulus. [Zeus moves his hand with a little pegasus-shaped cloud on it closer to baby Hercules and the cloud turns out to be a baby pegasus] His name is Pegasus, and he's all yours, son. [Baby Hercules bonks his forehead against Baby Pegasus', he whinnies and licks Hercules, they hug, all gods sigh] Hera: Mind his head Zeus: He's so tiny [Baby Hercules tries to bite the medallion that hangs from his neck and then yawns] Zeus: My boy. My little Hercules. Hades: How centimental. [camera moves to Hades fast after his voice is heard] You know, I haven't been this choked up since I got a hunk of moussaka caught in my throat! huh? [All gods look sternly at him] So is this an audience of a mosaic? Hey, how you doin'? Lookin' good. Nice dress. [as he is saying that, he moves from one god to another untill Zeus squeezes him in a hug] Zeus: So Hades, you finally made it. How are things in the underworld? Hades (taking Zeus' hand off his shoulder): well, they're just fine, you know, a little dark, a little gloomy, and as always, hey, full of dead people. What are you gonna do? Ah! There's the little sunspot, little smootchie. And here is a sucker for the little sucker, eh? (he weaves a sucker with skeleton head out of thin mist) Here you go. Ya just-- [Hercules squeezes Hades' finger, and after some fight he gets away from the baby] sheesh! uh, powerful little tyke. Zeus (hugging Hades once again): Come on, Hades, don't be such a stiff, join the celebration! Hades (getting free from the hug again): Hey, love to, babe, but unlike HTTP://COPIONI.CORRIERESPETTACOLO.IT you gods lounging about up here, I regrettably have a full-time gig You know, by the way, so charitably bestowed on me, Zeus, So.. can't. Love to, but can't. Zeus: You ought to slow down, you'll work yourself to death... Hah! work yourself to death! [crowd laughing] Oh, I kill myself Hades: If only, if only.. {Scene changes back to the Muses} Muse 3: If there's one god who don't want to get steamed up, it's Hades, 'cause he had an evil plan {scene changes to a boat on the river Styx, in which a skeleton is carrying Hades} Muses sing in background: He ran the underworld But thought the dead were dull and uncouth He was as mean as he was ruthless And that's the gospel truth He had a plan to shake things up [Hades feeds the three-deaded dog Cerberus] And that's the gospel truth [Hades gets on the shore] Hades: Pain! Pain: Coming, your most lugubriousness. [He trips, roll on the stair and gets seated on a sharp trident] Hades: Panic! Panic: Oh, I'm sorry, I can handle it! [He rans, but trips over Pain, who just got free from the trident, falls over, and his horns get stuck in Pain the same place trident just was] Pain: Pain! Panic: And Panic! Both: Reporting for duty! Hades: Fine, fine, fine, just let me know the instant the Fates arrive. Panic (who just got his horns free from Pain): Oh! They're here! Hades bursts into flames: What? The Fates are here and you didn't tell me? Pain and Panic: We are worms! Worthless worms! [they really shapechange into worms] Hades: Memo to me, memo to me, main you after my meeting {scene change to a cavern with the Fates} Atropos: Darling, hold that mortal's thread of life good and tight [She cuts a thread with scissors and a woman scream is heard] Lachesis: Incoming! [Fates laugh as a soul enters the cave and flies into a tunnel. Counter above the tunnel now says "Over 5000000001 served"] Hades: Ladies! hah! I am so sorry that I'm-- Atropos: Late Clotho: We knew you would be Lachesis: We know everything [they pass their only eye from one another as they speak the next three lines] Clotho: Past Lachesis: Present Atropos: And future (to Panic): Indoor plumbing - it's gonna be big.

  • Disney's the LION KING North American Tour Celebrates Sold-Out
    For Immediate Release: Disney’s THE LION KING North American Tour Celebrates Sold-Out Engagement in Atlanta Breaks Tour Record At The Fox Theater Atlanta, GA – Disney’s The Lion King continues to reign across North America with a sold-out record breaking run in Atlanta. The three-week return engagement at The Fox Theatre grossed over $8.2 million at the box office and entertained more than 100,000 theatergoers during 24 performances. The Lion King tour also celebrated its highest-grossing week ever during its final playing week when it grossed over $3.2 million at the box office. This engagement was the second time for the show at The Fox Theatre, and the fourth time overall in Atlanta. It is estimated that the Atlanta engagement of The Lion King generated an economic benefit of more than $28 million to the city from travel, hotels, restaurants, parking and other businesses patronized by both theatergoers and production staff. This figure is based upon a Touring Broadway League report which found that, on average, Broadway tours contribute an economic impact 3.52 times the gross ticket sales to the local metropolitan area’s economy. “It’s a tremendous honor for Fifth Third Bank Broadway In Atlanta to be the local presenter of The Lion King at the iconic Fox Theatre,” said Russ Belin, Vice President of Broadway In Atlanta. “We are delighted to be a part of the positive impact on the local economy. The countless memories created at the Fox Theatre through The Lion King for both old and new Broadway theatergoers are essential to our mission.” “We were thrilled to play Atlanta for a fourth time, where The Lion King has always been so warmly embraced,” said Jack Eldon, Vice President, Domestic Touring and Regional Engagements, Disney Theatrical Productions.

  • Disney Theatricals & the Lion King
    DISNEY THEATRICALS & THE LION KING Sunrise on the savanna. The shaman baboon Rafiki raises her voice in a glorious chant, calling the animals to Pride Rock. Her words sing out, and the animals come. The elephants, rhinos, zebras, giraffes, wildebeests, cheetahs, and antelope all come to honor the new prince and celebrate the unending Circle of Life. "The Lion King," a brilliant and life-affirming musical, has begun. When the animated feature film "The Lion King" opened in 1994, it caught the imaginations of children and adults all over the world. The epic adventure of the young lion Simba touched millions with its thrilling story and its powerful vision of family and the connection between all living things. Now, just as Disney has always given us new ways to look at animated films, Disney Theatricals is dedicated to innovative theater. "The Lion King" uses a breathtaking fusion of puppetry and human performance to re-create the animal characters. Its soaring score is a blend of American popular music and African rhythms. As Michael Eisner, chairman and CEO of The Walt Disney Company, said, "This production ... reaffirms our commitment to legitimate theater, which began with the record- breaking stage production of ’Beauty and the Beast’ ... We have assembled a great creative team for ’The Lion King’ with backgrounds in theater, opera, puppetry, and dance to bring a bold new dimension to the source material." For young people, "The Lion King" offers a once-in-a-lifetime event, a wonderful introduction to the excitement of a live performance experience. For educators, the elements of "The Lion King"’s story and its creation can be launching points for vibrant classroom discussions and explorations.
